"Why Hello Potter" Snape said sarcastically being the first one to see him. Katy looked up from the paper she was showing Lucius to James, her face void of any emotion "Hello James" she said blankly and looked back to the paper, to point something out to Lucius who was too busy glaring at James. "Katy.. Can I talk to you?" James asked. "May I ask why, Potter? Depending you havent spoken to me in.. what.. four months?" Katy asked perking a brow, it was now near Christmas of their fourth year. "Well.. Um.." James stuttered, "Thats what I assumed.. as soon as I finish with my business here I'll come over to the Gryffindor table so you and I can have a nice chat over a cup of tea" Katy said sarcastically, Lucius let out a light snort. Kojak glared at James, his hand still on Katy's shoulder. Katy looked to Kojak and mouthed "cool it" then turned to Lucius "I'll give you a few days to look over the contract.." she said then gave Kojak her secret handshake walking off to the hallway, James following her. "Why were you talking to them?" James asked, when they had reached the hallway. Katy laughed "Its none of your business, James.. really.. you hate me but want control of my life.. I dont understand you" she said matter-of-factly. "and I dont understand you" James snapped in return, "You know.. Lily's right your a conceded rich spoiled little brat with no concept of the real world other than the fact you have all my ex-friends kissing your ass.. You pushed me down so you could get higher.. deal with it.." Katy snapped turning and walking into the great hall over to the Ravenclaw table sitting down beside Kojak unaware of the fact she left James in tears. That night the Marauders began with their potion, and huried out to the shrieking shack to try them out, Remus had reluctantly agreed to come along. He had to give them tibs testing it two weeks before the full moon, so any failures would happen when their life wasnt in mortal peril due to his wolf form. James led them down the tunnel into the shrieking shack after using the immobilus on the whomping willow, which Dumbledore had planted on the ground for the specific purpose of Remus being able to transform in the shrieking shack, a passage leading from under the tree to the shrieking shack. He also helped spread the rumors that it was haunted to keep people away from the place. Depending it used to be lived in by Joe Samson who murdered his wife and two kids right there in the building it wasnt that difficult to believe.
"So did you and Katy ever become friends again?" Harry asked suddenly, Snape who was now reading his own copy sitting across from Lupin on the two couches, Harry on a nearby rocking chair. "Yea.. that very night infact.. we became closer when she found out.. she didnt.. well read" Remus said, Snape let out a laugh, Harry was shocked, Snape had never laughed before. Snape smirked "Now that all of us, except Remus of course are hot, single and on the quidditch team.. we're popular" he repeated a quote from earlier in the book, which was obviously the spot he was on. Remus laughed "So I'm not hot, single or on the quidditch team therefore I wasnt popular" he commented shaking his head, "Blame Sirius" Snape said simply looking back to his book, Harry rolled his eyes muttering "Old people" then went back to reading as both Remus and Snape fakely glared at him..
